Maria Trade Manager
Maria Trade Manager is a trade desk for manual traders, right on your MetaTrader 4 chart. Before you click BUY or SELL, the panel draws the trade plan on the chart: entry, stop loss and take profit zones with the money at risk, the reward and the risk:reward ratio. Drag a line to change the plan, then open the order with one click. After the trade is open the panel keeps protecting it with breakeven, trailing stop, partial take profit and a daily guard. The panel has three tabs: TRADE, PROTECT and STATS. Every rule it applies is visible on the panel or in the inputs. TRADE TAB - BUY and SELL in one click, with the live spread and the time left until the candle closes. - Lot size: FIXED LOT, or RISK % of the balance (the lot is calculated from the stop loss distance). - Stop loss and take profit in pips, money, % of the balance or x ATR. Switch the unit with one click. - PLAN ON THE CHART: entry, SL and TP zones are drawn before you trade. Drag the lines to set SL and TP by eye. - Pending orders: switch the plan to PENDING, drag the entry line to the price you want and press PLACE PENDING. The panel picks Buy/Sell Limit or Stop by itself. - Zones on open and pending orders: drag the SL or TP line of an open order to move it. Drag the entry line of a pending order and its SL and TP move with it. - Actions for this symbol: CLOSE ALL, PROFIT (close winners), LOSS (close losers), CLOSE 50%, REVERSE, SL TO ENTRY, DEL PENDING. - CLOSE ALL, LOSS and REVERSE ask for a second click within 3 seconds, so a slip of the mouse closes nothing. PROTECT TAB - Breakeven: move the stop loss to entry (plus a few locked pips) when the profit reaches your trigger. - Trailing stop: start distance, trailing distance and step in pips. - Partial take profit (TP1): close a share of the position at a chosen % of the way to TP, then move the stop loss to breakeven if you want. TP1 remembers what it already did, so a restart of MT4 never closes the same trade twice. - Daily guard (prop-firm style): max daily loss and daily profit target in money or % of the day's starting balance, closed plus floating, and a limit on new trades per day. When a limit is hit the panel closes the trades and blocks new orders until the next day. - Spread filter: no new orders while the spread is above your limit. STATS TAB - This symbol: open positions, lots, floating P/L, closed today. - Today on all symbols: closed trades, win rate, best and worst trade, net result. - Alerts when TP, SL or TP1 is hit or the guard locks: sound, phone push and pop-up. - Hotkeys: Shift+B buy, Shift+S sell, Shift+C close all, Shift+P plan on/off. SAFETY CHECKS - A stop loss closer than the broker allows is refused with a clear message, so the real risk always matches the plan. - Every order is checked for lot step, minimum and maximum lot, free margin, stop and freeze level and the broker order limit. - Lot sizes follow the broker step, including brokers with a 0.001 lot step. - Zone colours follow your chart background (dark or light chart). HOW TO USE 1. Attach Maria Trade Manager to the chart of the symbol you trade and allow live trading (AutoTrading on). 2. Choose FIXED LOT or RISK %, set the stop loss and take profit and their units. 3. Look at the plan on the chart, drag the lines if needed and press BUY or SELL. 4. On the PROTECT tab switch on breakeven, trailing, TP1 or the daily guard as you like. MAIN INPUTS - Magic number, manage manual trades too (magic 0), slippage, order comment - Lot mode, fixed lot, risk % per trade - Stop loss and take profit: on/off, value, unit; ATR period - Trade plan on the chart, pending line distance, hide the plan while a position is open - Breakeven trigger and lock; trailing start, distance and step - Partial TP: % of the way to TP, % to close, move SL to breakeven after TP1 - Daily guard: max daily loss, profit target, units, max trades per day, what to close when a limit is hit - Max spread, alerts (sound, push, pop-up), hotkeys, chart zones, confirm close with a second click - Strategy Tester demo trades (tester only) NOTES - Maria Trade Manager is a trading tool for manual trading. It does not open trades by itself on a live chart: every order comes from your click or hotkey. - Breakeven, trailing, TP1 and the daily guard act on the trades this panel manages (its magic number, and manual trades if you allow it). - MetaTrader 4 cannot click buttons in the Strategy Tester. There the panel only places small minimum-lot demo trades with SL and TP, so the protection tools can be watched in visual mode. Try the panel itself on a demo account. - Trading involves risk. Use the tool with your own judgement and risk management. User guide (PDF) is inside the download. Website: https://polymaria.net Telegram channel: https://t.me/polymaria_net

An MT4 trade manager panel that draws your trade plan on the chart before you click
How Maria Trade Manager works
What Maria Trade Manager does
Maria Trade Manager is an MT4 trade manager for manual traders. It is a panel on your MetaTrader 4 chart. Before you click BUY or SELL, it draws the trade plan on the chart: the entry, the stop loss zone and the take profit zone, with the money at risk, the possible reward and the risk:reward ratio. You drag a line to change the plan, then open the order with one click. After that the panel looks after the trade with breakeven, trailing stop, partial take profit and a daily guard.
How to set it up
Attach Maria Trade Manager to the chart of the symbol you trade, tick Allow live trading and switch AutoTrading on. In the VOLUME block choose FIXED LOT and type a lot, or choose RISK % and type the share of balance you accept to lose if the stop loss is hit. Set the stop loss and take profit and their unit. Look at the plan on the chart, drag the lines if needed, and press BUY or SELL. Then open the PROTECT tab and switch on the rules you want.
The TRADE tab
BUY and SELL open market orders in one click, with the live spread and the time left until the candle closes. Stop loss and take profit can be counted in pips, money, percent of balance or a multiple of ATR, and one click switches the unit while the level stays at the same price. In PENDING mode you drag the entry line and press PLACE PENDING, and the panel picks Buy or Sell Limit or Stop by itself. Action buttons include CLOSE ALL, PROFIT, LOSS, CLOSE 50%, REVERSE, SL TO ENTRY and DEL PENDING.
The PROTECT and STATS tabs
Breakeven moves the stop loss to entry plus a few locked pips when profit reaches your trigger. The trailing stop follows the price with a start, distance and step in pips. Partial take profit, TP1, closes a share of the position at a chosen percentage of the way to TP and can move the stop to breakeven. The daily guard sets a max daily loss, a profit target and a trades-per-day limit, then closes trades and blocks new orders until the next day. STATS shows today's results.
Who it is for
The panel is made for manual traders on MT4 who want to see their risk in money before they trade, size lots from a risk percentage, and keep daily loss rules similar to prop-firm limits. It works with any broker and account type, lot steps of 0.01 and 0.001, and any symbol such as forex, gold, indices and crypto. You attach one panel per symbol chart. It needs no internet access and no WebRequest addresses. A MetaTrader 5 version is listed in the guide as coming soon.
Safety checks and limits
A stop loss closer than the broker allows is refused with a clear message instead of being moved, so the real risk matches the plan. Every order is checked for lot step, minimum and maximum lot, free margin, stop and freeze level. CLOSE ALL, LOSS and REVERSE need a second click within 3 seconds. The panel never opens a trade by itself on a live chart. It does not decide your trades or promise any result, and trading leveraged products carries a high risk of loss.
Questions
Does Maria Trade Manager open trades by itself?
No. It is a tool for manual trading. On a live chart every order comes from your click on the panel or from a hotkey such as Shift+B or Shift+S. Breakeven, trailing, TP1 and the daily guard then act on the trades the panel manages, but they never open new trades.
Which brokers and symbols does it work with?
Any broker and any account type on MetaTrader 4, including brokers with a 0.001 lot step. It works on forex, gold, indices and crypto, on any timeframe. Attach one panel to each symbol chart you trade. It needs no internet access, and AutoTrading must be on with Allow live trading ticked.
How does the RISK % lot mode work?
In RISK % mode you type the percentage of balance you accept to lose. The panel calculates the lot from the stop loss distance, so a hit stop costs about that share of the balance. The stop loss must be on and counted in pips or ATR. If even the minimum lot risks more, the panel warns you.
Can it manage trades I open by hand or from another EA?
It manages orders with its own magic number. With the input Manage manual trades too set to true, it also manages trades you open by hand in MetaTrader, which have magic number 0. Trades from other EAs with other magic numbers are not managed. The daily guard counts results on the whole account.
Can the daily guard or breakeven stop me from losing money?
No. Maria Trade Manager does not decide your trades and does not promise any result. The daily guard closes trades and blocks new orders once a limit is hit, and breakeven only moves the stop. Losses can still happen. Start on a demo account and only trade money you can afford to lose.
